Yang-Mills as a Constrained Gaussian
arXiv:2207.06069 · doi:10.4310/ATMP.2023.v27.n2.a4
Abstract
Yang-Mills is reformulated in terms of the logarithmic derivative of the holonomies. The classical equations of motion are recovered, and the path integral is rewritten in two ways, both of which are of the form of a Gaussian satisfying a quadratic constraint.
